I bought two for a C310. They work so far, and they shared the load without us needing to adjust the regulators to make them parallel. The weight savings is nice. Contrary to the Q&A answer, mine included the gaskets.

Installed 2 on a C414A. Good easy installation. Having a pair makes it easy to parallel the voltage regulators.

5 grand for a continental alternator, less than $1k for this one with a 3 year warranty. No brainer.

Q: ALV9610. I am considering buying two from you but my cores would be a different Hartzell model. (Replacing my 50 amp alternators with your 100 amp alternators). Will you accept the 50 amp core? If so, what is the amount of the core charge? Thank you

The standard core charge is $425 as of 06/14/13. Some old Hartzell models are accepted as cores and others are not. We need to know the exact model number to get the core charge that will apply.
